Butt Welding Machine Model ST The Butt Welding Machines, model ST shines through highest quality standards and operator friendly control features. As is standard with all WEGENER International, the construction of the ST model butt welders is based on a heavy duty welded steel machine frame with integrated, task conforming and precisely machined welding tables. The composite construction of the welding tables guarantees precision butt welds without misalignments even at permanent usage of the machine at maximum capacity. This proven design concept and the patented, maintenance free mechanical force synchronization (parallel travel mechanism) of the welding tables are the ideal prerequisites for quality assured welding in accordance with DVS 2208-1.

Included in the base machine is a Siemens PLC out of S7 series with 5.7" graphic touch screen panel. The operator can enter the material and geometry specific parameters 'pressures-times-temperature' on a easily understandable screen. The appropriate welding pressures are controlled with a proportional valve. Optionally, the machine can be equipped with a property dataset (parameter), based on the DVS parameters after entering the material, plate thickness and plate length the machine automatically determines the required time for welding, force, temperature and these values for each welding...
